    Tuition
    Students who are admitted to the CLS graduate level programs (MS or Certificate) and are not residents of North Dakota or Minnesota will be charged tuition based on the contiguous per credit rate instead of the out of state rate (does not include non-degree students). Contiguous rate for 07-08 is $337.84/credit (without UND mandatory fees). If you are a resident of MN you need to complete the MN reciprocity form: http://www.getreadyforcollege.org/hesod/reciprocity/apply1.cfm
    • IMPORTANT: The Business Office does not mail tuition bills. To view your tuition/fees due: Choose "learner services", choose the "finances" icon and choose "account profile".
    • To pay your bill see the payment options offered by the Business Office: http://www.und.edu/dept/busoff/
    • (Note of interest: If you are an out of state (not MN) student who will be paying at the contiguous rate, campus connection does not automatically set the tuition and it is done by hand by the business office onto campus connection for you to view so we suggest waiting to pay your bill closer to January 8 ).
